Title: WDaDU remaster? (limited edition version from One Way Records)
Post by: Ħ on October 30, 2010, 07:51:58 PM
Hi all.

Using the search function, which actually helped for once, I can see that there isn't too much of an improvement on the remaster.  However, I don't have the original anyway, and I can get them at about the same price.  What do you guys think--since it isn't a price issue, should I just get the remaster?

I think all there is is the remaster and to my understanding, it isn't much of a remaster anyway. I found a version at my local CD store that was personalized by Dominici with a recent photo too. I didn't buy it, but I wonder if Zep owns one of these.

I actually prefer the original to the remaster.

So what's the difference, Hef?

There isn't much of a difference that I can notice.  But to me, the original, I don't know, sounds better.  Clearer, warmer.  I don't know, tough to put a finger on.  But better, to my ears.

I mean, the difference isn't enough that the remaster was worth it.

Lol, so it still sounds like recorded from the neighbor's apartment?
